UETTIMi HEADY FOK IMi MEET. The Fact that there is a Law Against ( aniMinir Not Kother* ing Promoters. v. News and Courier. Active preliminary preparations at Palmetto Park, the continued arrival of race track devotees, the already large strings of race horses now in quarters at the track, and the expected arrivals of more horses in the next few days, the buzz of ante-season gosoip, all indicate that unless something ' 1? o n _ unioreseen napper.s, me sauuu annual race meet of the Charlston Fair and Racing Association will open on January 25, as announced by the placards posted in various parts of the city, and in. the show windows of various business houses. Keenest expectancy is evidenced on every hand by the followers of the turf, L who are already here, and the possibili| ty that the meet may not be held ^ seems not to be given serious consideration. Whether there is any real hope on the part of the promoters that the legislature may take such favorable , action as would allow them to go ahead with the meet under the law is not known; nor is there anything more definite than the gossip of the streets to suggest the methods of procedure which will be followed in the +*?^v looMciotnrp .'^ipc nothing. The C V Cli U 111^: ^ _ racing people, the owners of horses and others, haw? been told positively that there will be racing; as to the conditions under which it will be held there is only speculation. While it is not known definitely, it has been stated that there are more horses here this season than last, th-e number now being something over six hundred. The only big stable here last year and not here this year is that ? of R. F. Carmen, while there are sev?era^big owners here this year who did not come in 1912. As to the race ) followers, the indications are that there will be more of them than last -.'oqt. Rv^rv train brings in new ar rivals, and the opinion is prevalent that the crowd will far exceed that of last year. Prominently displayed in many show windows are placards announcing the date, January 25. Improvements and remodelling, it is stated, have been going on and continue at Palmetto Park. Tryouts with the horses that are here go on every day under direction of the trainer and jockeys that have taken up quarters at the park. The Confederate Ironclad. . Lieutenant Yancey's southern sweetheart, Rose, is jealous of Elinor, a northern girl, who is visiting her aunt,'Mary de Lane. This jealousy is excised by an invitation from Mary to call and meet ner neice. visits the de Lane home and while walking along the river with Elinor, he shows her where the Confederate Ironclad is being constructed. Elinor, having strong Union sympathies, reveals the location of the Ironclad to the commander of the Federal gunboats. ? An attack is made on the Ironclad and Yancey rides to give warning. The Confederates are temporarily helpless as their powder is exhausted. Yancey, knowing that a supply of ammunition is loaded on a train in another location, prepares to bring the needed powder to his compatriots. j.?c_ +r? l#>ave. a AS tile ticliu it, awuv w - - ? -, Federal scouting party rides up and opens fire. Rose and Yancey jump on the engine and make a wild dash to escape with the powder. Elinor, from a distance, sees the fight and sets fire to the bridge over which the train must pass. While riding over the bridge the last car catches fire. Yancey, who has been wounded, is left in the engine cab ! while Rose crawls over the loaded train and succeds in cutting off the . end car just in time to escape the exr l. plosion. The powder is delivered to the Iron % - clad in the nick of time and a fierce battle wages between the Confederate vessel and the Union gunboats. Th above will be shown Tuesday at the Theato.?Old court house. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT.

It is to be inferred i 'he majority! ; of Newberry book-reader^ followed the ! wanderings and low story of the prim1 itive* mountain girl, June, in .John Fox, i .Ir.'s delightful story, "The Trail of ? the Lonesome Pine," which will be fi i * i 1 j seen at tne opera nous? ucAt .?uuUa; j j night. j j Few stories, even though they be i j part fiction and part truth, have been ; j written with the compelling heart-in- j terest that the author of this thrilling | story of the Virginia hills, has' sustained in every page of his narrative. Therefore, it was with some trepidation that Eugene Walter, brilliant dramatist though he is, approached the task set for him, to bring out of the book a stage June, that would ap- I peal as strongly to theatre-goers' as I hook June aDnealed to readers. That Mr. Walter has accomplished ! his task is evidenced alreadv bv the | approbation of the producers of the j play, as well as the public and'authi or. Mr. Walter has taken a rough, un- j j educated, enormously superstitious' ! and imaginative mountain girl, and | made her a delightful creature. He! has brought out all the possibilities i of the June of the book, catching the, significance of Mr. Fox's cleancut | a rasterization and the exquisite ' i poetry and drama of his dominating j love theme. i The play contains no problem, no j I question of sex dominance, but is ab- j solute in the purituy of its sentiment,! the uplift of its moral, the poetry of j ! its romance. A genuine man takes an interest in a simple girl. He anticipates her wish to be sent into the I world to be educated ana in ms sicaui I goodness arouses in the heart of the j j girl something greater than mere affecition; an over-mastering love. In fact, 1 June expects all along that Hale will I marry her, and when she expresses the i great love she bears him and he tells ' her he can not think of marriage, poor little June imagines she isn't good enough, for him, and pitifully disillu- j sioned, she sends- for her father to j I" XOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEJTEXT.
